Topic: Month 3–New Appliqué Blocks (3/3) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

"Afternoon Delight" was one of Sue Garman's favorite patterns. This wonderfully scrappy quilt is truly a delight to make with its combination of simple appliqué and Double Nine-Patch blocks and modified Shoo Fly blocks. Each month you will work on pieced and appliquéd blocks, and in the final month, you will assemble the blocks and add the outer border. The finished quilt measures approximately 86 1/2" inches square.

Let's use this Topic "Afernoon Delight Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.

The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.

AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

bbquiltmaker OFFLINE Posts: 1498 Thank you received: 1762	Thanks, Helen. I have passed on your suggestion to the TQS folks. It’s not about me or my blog, though I do put lots of time into trying to explain ways to make these blocks. I am always looking for ways to teach quiltmaking in ways that help people be successful.

Barbara, Thank you for the wonderful explanation with pictures of the Twirly Balls on your blog.
I wonder how many people are making this quilt that don't use the forum. Maybe you could post your
tips as a download on the page where the BOM pattern is posted or if that is too much trouble, at least
post your blog website there so members find your help with all the excellent ideas you have
for making the quilt. I am sure there are a lot quilters struggling along that would appreciate having you
as their mentor on this pattern.I know you are beyond busy, busy, busy so I understand if you can't do it.
Just an idea that popped into my head. HelenW
